Chapter 30 Two Accidents, the Impact of the Battle Situation

Shurima Desert Front, Osseth Logistics Base.

After separating from the instructors at the War College, Chen Yin, under the leadership of the base orderlies, met Poppy, one of the six Valoran generals who stayed behind, and Poppy was once a lieutenant general in the Demacian border army.

Previously, the 300,000 Valoran coalition army led by Chen Yin was originally the main force of the 200,000 border troops on the Demacian side, including part of the strength of the War College escort team, part of the strength of the Pittover mechanized force, and the rest was the Volibel's bear people army that Chen Yin rescued from the other space.

So after Chen Yin took away this team with the Demacian border army as the main force, Bobbi was nominally promoted to one of the six great generals of the Valoran coalition army, but there were no combat troops available, so she was also waiting for Chen Yin's return in Osseth.

As the elder of the Demacian border army, Bobbi once followed Chen Yin and this border army to fight in all directions, and only need to take a cursory look at the chariots, horses and generals who entered the city, and it can be seen that the total number of this coalition army has not increased, and this has not achieved the goal of Chen Yin's trip.

"Chen Yin, what's going on? Why didn't you bring new reinforcements from Demacia? ”

Bobby once inherited the favor of the old dean of the War College with Chen Yin, so she and Chen Yin sometimes communicate not like superiors and subordinates, but more like friends and brother and sister.

According to Bobby's estimate, if Chen Yin successfully quells the rebellion in Demacia, even if he does not count the number of rebels after the incorporation, he only needs to pacify the royal city of Vantican, and then mobilize the garrisons of several provinces in Demacia, at least he can bring back more than 600,000 troops, and if the 400,000 scattered rebels are rectified and absorbed, the number should be more, plus the original 300,000 troops, it is conservatively estimated that it will also reach one million troops, and at that time, the total combat strength of Demacia will account for about half of the entire Valoran coalition army, then whether it is for Bobbi or for Chen Yin, the Valoran coalition with the Demacian army as the main force will have the absolute right to speak for the entire coalition.

Of course, these are just Bobby's perfect predictions, as a Demacian who has been in confrontation with Noxus for a long time, her mind is still stuck in the stage of "Deno" confrontation, seeing that the current total of 1.8 million people in the Valoran coalition army, the number of Noxian soldiers is 700,000, which makes her always uneasy, so she is also the person who hopes that Chen Yin's trip can bring back more soldiers.

"Well, something has happened on Demacia's side, Master Soraka's prophecy has been fulfilled, and the angelic legions have descended on Vantican. It's just that I didn't expect to be stuck in this critical period, and in the short term, there will be no new reinforcements in Demacia, so our troops are a little nervous. Chen Yin replied with a frown.

He was seriously looking at the thick stack of information in his hand at the moment, this is the information on the front line of Shurima sorted out by the clerk, and the situation here is not optimistic, after entering the Shurima Desert, the Valoran coalition soldiers are divided into five lines, advancing into the depths of the Shurima Desert in the shape of an arrow, and they have not yet engaged with the Void Monster Legion, and they have not seen any whereabouts of the Void Monsters along the way, of course they cannot disappear out of thin air, all signs are showing that the Void Monsters are deliberately avoiding the coalition forces.

Do they have any purpose or plan? This information made Chen Yin very confused.

Some herdsmen who have lived on the edge of the Shurima Desert for a long time have reported that the Void monsters in the desert will regularly run to the periphery of Shurima to fight the autumn wind and look for blood food, but since more than a month ago, they have seen countless Void monsters pouring into the desert in a scattered manner, and since then, the Void monsters in the desert seem to have quieted down, and they have not been seen for a long time.

The abnormality of the void monsters in the desert, Chen Yin knows that it has something to do with him, more than a month ago, he took the aftermath of the victory of the Acacia Pass, personally led the 700,000 Valoran coalition army, and used the method of encircling three queyi, conquered the Void Lair of Acacia in one fell swoop, and destroyed the plane portal, after that, the Valoran coalition pursued the remnants of the Void Air Regiment all the way, according to post-war statistics, the coalition army annihilated about 500,000 Void monsters in Acacia, and in the process of thousands of miles of pursuit, more than 800,000 Void monsters were annihilated, According to the previous comparison of the number of garrisons in the Void Lair of Etistan, Acacia conservatively estimated that there were more than 2 million Void Monsters, so there were at least about 500,000 Void Monsters that fled from Acacia into the depths of the Shurima Desert, which is the Void Monsters that those herders saw scattered into the desert, they are Acacia's rout, and they are the reinforcements of the desert lair.

According to Master Soraka's prophecy, if the Shurima Desert is really the center of the lair of the Void Monsters, then the Void Air Regiment stationed here must be a terrifying number, and it is conservatively estimated to be at least two to three times that of Etistan and Acacia, even if you don't add the number of more than 500,000 Aecasia Void Monster remnants, then there may be more than 4 million Void Monsters here?? Or rather, more?

Looking at the information in his hand, speculating on these data, and comparing his current strength, Chen Yin's brows tightened more and more.

Reinforcements gone? Master Soraka's prophecy? The Legion of Angels is coming? Wait, Angel Legion, this is an outsider, then it is equivalent to a void monster, why didn't the marshal destroy them? With a stomach full of doubts, Bobbi had countless questions to ask Chen Yin, but when she saw Chen Yin who was deep in thought, she also understood the priority of the matter, so she stood up gently, and after going out, she casually closed the door, and after sending away the guards at the door, Bobby began to stand guard for Chen Yin at the door, blocking visitors, so as to leave Chen Yin a quieter space, so that he had enough time to think of the perfect strategic idea.

A few hours later, Chen Yin woke up from a state of closed eyes and meditation, and after hundreds of deductions in his mind, Chen Yin felt that the attack plan of the Shurima Desert that he had formulated before had serious loopholes, and the original 1.8 million troops of the Valoran coalition army were only 1.5 million after Chen Yin took away 300,000 people, and the original plan was that these 1.5 million people would be divided into five attacking forces and advance into the desert separately, while searching for the location of the Void Lair, and on the other hand, it would be convenient to continue to clear the remnants of the Acacia Void Air Regiment that had fled into the desert. If you see the main force of the Void Monsters, or search the edge of the Void Lair, then the five troops will immediately surround this place, use the scientific and technological power of the Zaun Federation and the Pittover Federation in the coalition to build a temporary war fortress, and then besiege but not attack, slowly consume the strength of the Void Monsters, and wait for Chen Yin to return with a large number of reinforcements from Demacia, and then launch a general attack to break this last Void stronghold on the Valoran continent in one fell swoop.

There was nothing wrong with the plan itself, but after the Valoran coalition entered the Shurima Desert, two unexpected things arose.

The first surprise was that the Void Monsters did not take the initiative to attack, so it was impossible to determine the location of the Void Lair in the Shurima Desert based on their trajectories. According to the predatory habits and attack habits of the Void monsters, as long as the human army enters their territory, they will attack the human army regardless of life and death, whether it is during the Battle of Etistan or the Battle of Acacia.

The second accident was that Chen Yin hurriedly returned from Demacia, not bringing more fresh troops, and it was originally planned that after Chen Yin returned to the Shurima Desert from Demacia, he would lead at least 600,000 Demacian reinforcements to return, so that the total number of the Valoran coalition army would reach 2.4 million, even if the virtual air regiment had a force of about 3 million-4 million in the Shurima Desert, then Valoran would have an absolute advantage.

When the above two accidents happen, there will be a lot of variables in the Battle of Shurima Desert, for example, when Chen Yin was conducting war deduction in his mind, he put himself in the position of the commander of the virtual air regiment, and deliberately avoided the Valoran coalition army, not because he was afraid of colliding with the Valoran coalition army, but in order to keep the coalition army away from the mainland and go deeper into the desert, the vast and boundless desert is more suitable for the Void Monster, a race that can make holes anywhere, and this can be said to be their home field, Having all the advantages but not attacking them only shows that their commanders are more ambitious.

For example, the total annihilation of these five Valoran coalition troops who entered the depths of the desert?? For another example, completely abandon the lair of the Shurima Desert, bypass the large forces of the coalition army, and attack the Mogro Pass of the War College, the first Xiongguan in the world, along a straight line? Or could you go a little further east and pass through the edge of the Sable Mountains and go straight into the Yodel Federation?

Either of these scenarios ultimately happens, it will be bad news for the current Valoran continent and the Valoran coalition forces.

"Guards!! Summoning General Bobby here! ”

"I'm here!"

Before Chen Yin's words fell, Bobby's voice came from the door, and after she pushed the door open, Chen Yin saw a lot of people standing outside the door, in addition to Bobby, there were also some senior generals in the Demacian border army, as well as other Federation generals left behind in the Orceth military town.

They were all people who planned to come to look for Chen Yin, but were stopped by Bobby.

Seeing that the senior generals were all in line, Chen Yin stood up from his chair, glanced at everyone and said: "We need to change our strategy, inform all the generals above the lieutenant colonel level in the Oseth garrison, all go to the combat conference room to assemble, in addition, inform my mentors and several vice presidents of the War College to also come to this meeting, and in 15 minutes, it will officially begin." ”

--------

At this moment, among the five Valoran coalition troops that had penetrated deep into the Shurima Desert, the Ionian coalition army, which was mainly cavalry and marched the fastest, had arrived in a wonderland in the desert.

There is still yellow sand everywhere here, but there are no sand ridges and sand dunes, this is a plain area in the desert, the scout troops of the vanguard army found dozens of large and small pyramid buildings here, the largest pyramid diameter distance is about 3000 meters, from a distance it looks like a city standing in the desert, the smallest pyramid diameter is only a few tens of meters, not as good as the castle inhabited by human beings looks magnificent.

When the scouts in front fed back this newly discovered strange area to the rear, the commander of the coalition army, the former commander-in-chief of Ionia, the elder brother of Irelia of the Will of Blade, the sworn brother of Chen Yin, and now one of the six great generals of the Valoran coalition army, led a pro-guard army to hurry here and join the forward troops already stationed here.

"Have you searched around? Have all these pyramids been searched? Zelos asked with a solemn face, looking at the pyramids.

"Report to the general, all the surrounding areas have been searched within a radius of 100 kilometers, there is no trace of any void monsters, the internal space of these pyramids is very large, there are many passages, in addition to being able to explore upwards, there are also stepped passages where they are buried underground, so the search has not been completely completed, however, the eight pyramids in front of our forward battalion have been discovered, there is no danger here, we can also borrow the terrain here to build fortifications."

The commander of the Forward Battalion, a lieutenant colonel officer, began to report to Zelos in detail the aggregated intelligence information.

Zelos began to patrol the pyramids that had already been discovered. At this time, the Pittover soldiers in the coalition army were methodically digging trenches around the perimeter of the pyramid, and spliced together the steel walls around the camp one by one, these steel walls with a thickness of more than 20 cm and a height of more than six meters could block the main force in the Void Monsters, the impact and cutting of the scythe monsters, in front of the wall, the Ionian soldiers were erecting countless repulsion horses, the soldiers of Yodel were setting up traps one by one, and the soldiers of Zuan were smearing poison on the sharp corners of the rejecting horses. The soldiers of Noxus also began to lay out sharp blades at the bottom of the trap.

For the first time, the soldiers of various federations with different camps, different ideas, and even new and old grudges against each other, abandoned the hatred of generations, crossed the racial barrier, and gathered together to protect Valoran, and joined hands and worked together to fight against the common enemy of everyone on the Valoran continent, the Void Monster.

"All this, after the end of the war, if it can be maintained, then how beautiful this continent will be......" Zelos couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

"General, did you just say something? Is there any instruction, sorry I didn't seem to hear clearly! A Guard Commander, two or three positions behind Zeroth, stepped forward and took a few steps and asked.

"Hehe, I didn't say anything, you sent someone to inform the troops in the rear, tell them to speed up the march, before 19 o'clock in the evening, all the troops must arrive here, we are stationed here tonight. Also, let Pittwolf's communications officer inform the rest of the coalition forces of our current location, and share with them the information we have found here. ”

"Yes, General, my subordinates will receive orders."

The commander of Zeroth's pro-army saluted and hurried to the rear.

--------

After nightfall, the main force of the Valoran coalition entered the camp, and by this time the outer fortifications of the camp had been completed, and the army began to rest in camp.

Thousands of meters below the surface of the Shurima Desert, a low roar with the breath of a superior resounded in all corners of the underground cave, and many flesh-red earthworm-like insects poured out from all parts of the underground cave, with only one eye on their foreheads, and countless tentacles on their bodies waving one after another, emitting a bloodthirsty echo of "sizzle~sizzle~", as if responding to the superior who gave the command.

The Void Monsters, who had not acted for a long time, moved quietly on this night.
